~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

Die a Violent Death (2010)

AKA: Still / Tai Hong

Starring: Mai Charoenpura
Director: Poj Arnon, Chatchai Katenut, Thanwarin Sukhaphisit, Manussa Vorasingha

Premise:
Four tales based on true events.

My Take:

"Haunting Motel" -My favorite tale of the movie has a two friends, one gay and one straight, pick up a prostitute. They go to a hotel ran by a creepy murderous old lady. This segment borders heavily on slapstick and is a nice change of pace.

"Flame" - A man grieves over his girlfriend after she dies in a nightclub fire.

"Revenge" - A drug dealer kills a woman who steals from him and hides the body in the apartment complex water supply. Adverse effects start occurring to the tenants.

"Imprison" - A man in prison is haunted by his cell mate who committed suicide.

Rating: In the middle
